Hi All,

I followed the documentation to create a workflow for the approval process. I had user1 create an article that had to be approved by user2 .
I had user2 approve the article. Then user1 went back to collaboration and I get the following message

Approval
The content object New Article was approved and will be published once the publishing workflow continues.

How do I get the publishing workflow to contine ?

Also can I have it contined but set to appear at a later date ?

TIA,

Steve Mandel

Hi,

Have you run the workflow cron?

php -C runcronjobs.php

This command publishes all approved documents, amongst other things.

I hope this helps

Thanks Tony,

We tried that but nothing happened - we still get the same message when I go to the messages of user1 .

I'm having the same problem with 3.6 on a linux box.

I have run cronjobs etc but the workflow seems to be halted for no reason? My objects say they have been approved (which they have) in my colaboration inbox but they are not being published?

Has anyone figured this out?

Cheers!

Hi, I just thought I should mention that I'm using this method to run cron jobs:
http://ez.no/products/ez_publish_cms/documentation/configuration/configuration/cron_jobs

I have placed this in my index.php file:

  include_once( 'kernel/classes/notification/eznotificationeventfilter.php' );
  eZNotificationEventFilter::process();

The reason for this is that I have found no other way as of yet to run cron jobs successfully...

I'm able to receive notifications using this method so why can't I publish approved objects?

I really need help with this, also note command lines are not an option as the client will not have access (or know how) to use command lines (nor should they, this is a CMS?).

Any help is good, Cheers!
